You know what really grinds my gears?!
#DCProblems
My brother was paying $130/month for a space in his condo's garage in Arlington and another $250ish per month to park his car next to his office on H Street. He decided to take the Metro to work now....Lol

When people ping me on Lync at work with just "Hi" or "Hello" and then proceed to pause a couple of minutes to actually ask a question instead of "Hey, do you know where I can find blah blah blah?"

I ordered a bunch when I was due for my last glasses. They may look nice, but they're pieces of shit. None sit correctly on my face.

Well it's either that or you buy something made by Luxottica - since that's, you know, everything else.

My second pass for JMU was only $10. I've asked around and can't find anyone without a car here in Copper. Visitor parking here is full from 5 on Friday through Sunday, so I guess I can never drive my car on the weekends unless I park my truck in the spot while I'm gone.

It sounds like you can choose between that, or paying for another permit. Neither is a bad option, but one requires planning and the other requires money.

I'm just saying, don't be all "woe is me" when you have two options available, neither of which is the end of the world Tongue

He said what ground his gears, and we presented two solutions, the worse of the two was paying $15 a month to enable more convenience.

That's all that was :lol:

Hey. $15 is a 30 rack of beverage. I guess I'll walk a little farther.
